Log inOkay, so I didn't get drunk.

Okay, so I didn't get drunk.
But I did have two 22 ounce yummy Sams, even if that is totally Red Sox beer. But it's so good.
My poor brother-in-law. Wednesday is his 40th birthday. My sister splurged and got really great seats for the Yankee game that night.
Then this morning, his grandmother died.
They have to have the funeral on Wednesday because they have to send the body back to Puerto Rico for burial. So now they have to go to a funeral instead - I feel really bad, because they're both sad and disappointed at the same time. So tonight was pretty much the only celebration he's going to get - and that was just dinner at Outback.

Now here's a guy who likes his beer. Good Hughie.

Awww that's so sad!!! These things seriously happen on the whim sometimes. One of my best friend's Dad died on Friday night, and he's no older than mid 40s. Going to his funeral on Thursday, oi life and its tragedies.

Oh, that sucks. The start of this year was full of funerals as well, they seem to come in batches.

It's funny, I always thought that a 40th birthday was a bigger deal to women (I plan to avoid mine), but it's a big deal to men too. He's actually this really easy going guy, just rolls with the punches, but last night I could just tell how bummed he was.

That sucks, sorry to hear that. I laughed when I turned 40 and had a gallbladder operation to celebrate LOL.

I think any birthday ending with a 0 can be kind of a big deal to any gender.

Well the big 2-0 was pretty freaking lame, lol, out of the teens but still not really old enough to do anything.

That's true, though that's because you have silly drinking age laws. It was a lot more fun turning 18, though 20 had its perks.

Exactly, it doesn't stop anyone anyways.

Yeah, my 19 year old nephew showed me his fake ID when I saw him the last time.

Lol, haha I don't have one of those but know plenty of people who do and just munch off them.

You know I still get carded buying beer in the supermarket because there's an "Ask 25" initiative. Whereby if they think you look under 25 you have to have ID to prove you're over 18. Which is... you know... STUPID. But pleases me in a sad sort of way to know that I have, as yet, clung on to my youth. I hope to continue to get ID'd until I'm at least 30 ;p

That has to be one of the oddest initiatives I've ever heard, lol.
And sad thing is I get mistaked for 16 all the time, now that really annoys me, lol.

Well, I kind of understand it, cause if you've ever seen some of the 16 year olds around here, dressed up like slappers with 20lbs of make-up caked to their face, many of them look *substantially* older...

Lol, ok so I've been watching Little Brittian and all I can think of is that teenage girl Matt Lucas plays, lol.

That show is awesome, thank goodness for a colleague who introduced me to it, I'm on season 4 now, can't get enough of it.

I was still getting carded in my late 20's, so hang onto youth I always say. Actually, I got carded a few months back, but I think she was just being a wise ass because my husband was joking about her needing to card me. Not bloody likely. Buggers!
